Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of Sir Walter Scott, Vol. 5 of 5 In dismissing the last volume of this work, I have to apologize for some mistakes, which shall be corrected in the text, should it reach a second edition. I notice such as have been pointed out to me, but I am afraid very many more might be detected on a careful revision, and I shall be thankful for any suggestions on this head. I find, from the evidence of documents kindly forwarded to me by my friend, Dr. Macfarlane, Principal of the University of Glasgow, that the cause of the minister, M'Naught, in which Sir Walter Scott made his first appearance at the bar of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland, was heard in May 1793, not 1795. It appears, that another person alluded to in connexion with his early practice as a barrister, killed accidentally in July, 1795, was not door-keeper to the Faculty of Advocates, but bar-keeper to the Court of Session. These situations are not, it seems, held by individuals of exactly the same rank in society; and a relation of the bar-keeper has favoured me with a conspectus of his pedigree; which, however, I do not think it necessary to insert here. I have received a letter from Kelso, complaining sharply of an extract from Sir Walters MSS., in which (vol. i.p. 94)a lady, known to him in his youth, is described as having been seen by him afterwards in the situation of governess to a manufacturers children in Paisley. For this mistake, if it was one, I cannot account. I have been informed of my error in stating (vol. ii. p.27) that Francis, the eighth Lord Napier, had been a lord of the bed-chamber. I had confounded him, it seems, with the late Earl of Morton, who succeeded him as Commissioner to the General Assembly.

Mr. Laidlaw attended him occasionally as amanuensis when his fingers were chilblained, and often dined as well as break fasted with him; and Miss Scott well knew that in all circumstances she might lean to Laidlaw with the confidence of a niece or a daughter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sir Walter Scott Life of Sir Walter Scott, in ten volumes. N o introduction to Scott would be worth much in which that course was not followed. Indeed, excepting Sir Walter's own writ ings, there is hardly any other great source of information about him; and that is so full, that hardly anything need ful to illustrate the subject of Scott's life remains un touched. As regards the only matters of controversy, Scott's relations to the Ballantynes, I have taken care to check Mr. Lockhart's statements by reading those of the representatives of the Ballantyne brothers; but with this exception, Sir Walter's own works and Lockhart's life of him are the great authorities concerning his character and his story.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of the Life of Sir Walter Scott, Bart, Vol. 3 Scott's children remember the parting scene as one of unmixed affection - but it had had, as we shall see, its lighter features. Among the many amiable English friends whom he owed to his frequent visits at Rokeby Park, there was, I believe, none that had a higher place in his regard than the late Anne Lady Alvanley, the widow of the celebrated Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas. He was fond of female society in general; but her ladyship was a woman after his heart; well born, and highly bred, but without the slightest tinge of the frivolities of modern fashion; soundly informed, and a warm lover of literature and the arts, but holding in as great horror as himself the imbecile chatter and affected ecstasies of the bluestocking generation. Her ladyship had written to him early in May, by Miss Sarah Smith (now Mrs Bartley), whom I have already mentioned as one of his theatrical favourites; and his answer contains, among other matters, a sketch of the "Forest Flitting." To the Right Honourable Lady Alvanley. "Ashestiel, 25th May, 1812. "I was honoured, my dear Lady Alvanley, by the Kind letter which you sent me with our friend Miss Smith, whose talents are, I hope, receiving at Edinburgh the full meed of honourable applause which they so highly merit.
